  • Applications

    9-Octadecenamide, N-[2-hydroxy-1-(hydroxymethyl)heptadecyl]-, (9Z)- (CAS 54422-45-6) is a long-chain fatty amide with a polar head and a lipophilic tail, and is therefore used across multiple industrial and personal care applications. In plastics and polymers, it often serves as a slip/lubricant additive and a plasticizer for select resin systems; in cosmetics and personal care, it can function as an emollient and part of surfactant systems to improve slip, skin feel, and dispersion of components. It is also used as a surfactant, wetting agent, or additive for coatings and inks, and as a processing aid or intermediate in industrial manufacturing, depending on formulation and local regulations.
